Middle Tennessee School of Anesthesia Selects Disruptive CAMS Enterprise ERP to Power Expansion, New Directions
ERP’s ease of use and the need to invest only in a single, totally integrated package to fully automate the school are deciding factors in decision. CAMS Enterprise’s ability to support program and curriculum expansion is also important to selection committee.
St. Louis, MO, May 31, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Middle Tennessee School of Anesthesia, which educates bachelors-prepared Registered Nurses to be Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists — or CRNAs — has chosen CAMS Enterprise, the flagship disruptive academic management solution from Three Rivers Systems Inc. as its new enterprise resource planning system. A disruptive technology is an innovation creating a new market and value network to “disrupt” an existing market by displacing earlier technology.
For more than 60 years, MTSA has run most operations with manual business processes and little automation. As the school reached a turning point in its evolution and looked to increase enrollment while adding programs — including the new Doctor of Nurse Anesthesia Practice Degree — senior management sought to upgrade its systems.
An MTSA selection committee recommended CAMS Enterprise after evaluating a variety of programs. As deciding factors, the committee cited CAMS Enterprise’s ease of use and the need to invest only in a single, totally integrated package to fully automate the school. In addition, CAMS ability to support program and curriculum expansion carried additional weight in the decision.
Director of Operations Sam Minten headed the selection team. “We were extremely impressed with the time Three Rivers Systems invested in learning about our school and how well they understood our academic and business-operation needs,” he said. “Their deep experience with higher education institutions in health care and numerous excellent health-care references made it clear to us that Three Rivers Systems could be a key partner in helping us achieve our strategic expansion goals.”
CAMS Enterprise is a fundamentally different academic ERP system built for the 21st century from the ground up with the latest Microsoft technology.
CAMS provides everything institutions need to manage the entire student lifecycle, including: online applications; registration and payment; business analytics; mobility; integrated financial aid; built-in degree audit; built-in portals; government-mandated reports and much more.
